Recent studies of metaphor usage (e.g., Cameron, 2011; Semino et al., 2013) have shifted focus from relatively static mappings between source and target domains towards an emphasis on how metaphors are appropriated and recontextualized across different genres to convey new meanings and serve new functions. More recently, this emphasis has begun to be applied to the study of metaphor usage in religious discourse (Pihlaja, 2014; Richardson, 2017; Richardson et al., 2021). The current article investigates how metaphors of movement are used in conjunction with metonymy, force dynamics, and conceptual blending to create particular rhetorical effects in a debate between the atheist Richard Dawkins and the Christian apologist John Lennox. It demonstrates how previous figurative language is expanded and reconfigured during the course of the debate in an attempt to establish situated, dominant conceptualizations.
最近对隐喻用法的研究(例如,Cameron,2011;Semino等人,2013)已经将重点从源域和目标域之间相对静态的映射转移到强调隐喻如何在不同类型中被挪用和重新文本化,以传达新的含义和服务新的功能。最近,这种强调已经开始应用于宗教话语中隐喻用法的研究(Pihlaja,2014;理查森,2017;理查森等人,2021)。本文探讨了在无神论者理查德·道金斯和基督教辩护者约翰·伦诺克斯之间的辩论中,运动隐喻如何与转喻、力量动力学和概念融合结合使用,以产生特定的修辞效果。它展示了在辩论过程中,先前的比喻语言是如何被扩展和重新配置的,试图建立情境化的、占主导地位的概念化。

Do metaphors make opinions? 隐喻能形成观点吗?
IF 0.9 Q2 LINGUISTICS Pub Date : 2022-01-20 DOI: 10.1075/msw.20028.moh

Introduction: A frame makes specific information about a topic more salient. Metaphors can be used as frames to influence people’s opinions on controversial political topics as well as on health-related topics. This study aims to determine the influence of metaphorical frames on the opinion towards surrogacy and examines whether specific aspects of surrogacy are more prone to the influence than others. Method: 236 participants were assigned to one of three groups with different metaphorical frames for surrogacy and thereafter completed the Attitude Towards Surrogacy Questionnaire. To investigate if participants’ opinions on surrogacy were influenced by the frame used for surrogacy, three ANOVAS were conducted. Result: The main effect of the ANOVAS revealed that opinion towards payment of the surrogate mothers, but not the attitude towards surrogacy in general, was influenced by the metaphorical frame used for surrogacy. Discussion: The results support the idea that a metaphorical frame can evoke reactance regarding the payment of surrogate mothers. Participants might resist the frame of the metaphorical term for surrogacy as an unemotional business act, by favouring less monetary compensation of the surrogate mother, when the metaphorical frame implies that surrogates only help intended parents for the monetary compensation.
引言:框架使有关某个主题的具体信息更加突出。隐喻可以作为框架来影响人们对有争议的政治话题以及与健康相关的话题的看法。本研究旨在确定隐喻框架对代孕观点的影响,并考察代孕的特定方面是否比其他方面更容易受到影响。方法:236名参与者被分到三组中的一组,每组具有不同的代孕隐喻框架,然后完成对代孕的态度问卷。为了调查参与者对代孕的看法是否受到代孕框架的影响,进行了三次方差分析。结果:方差分析的主要效应表明,代孕所使用的隐喻框架影响了代孕母亲对支付的看法,而不是对代孕的总体态度。讨论:研究结果支持这样一种观点,即隐喻框架可以引发对代孕母亲付款的抵制。参与者可能会抵制代孕这个隐喻性术语作为一种非情感商业行为的框架,因为它倾向于对代孕母亲进行较少的金钱补偿,而这个隐喻性框架意味着代孕者只会帮助有意的父母获得金钱补偿。

Socio-pragmatic potential of (verbo)-visual metaphtonymy in Internet memes featuring Donald Trump 唐纳德·特朗普网络模因(动词)视觉隐喻的社会语用潜力
IF 0.9 Q2 LINGUISTICS Pub Date : 2021-12-13 DOI: 10.1075/msw.20010.mar

The present study explores (verbo)-visual metaphtonymy in Twitter-based Internet memes featuring Donald Trump, focusing both on the patterns of conceptual interaction of metaphor and metonymy and their socio-pragmatic potential to influence Internet users. The results of the study reveal four types of (verbo)-visual metaphtonymy employed in the analyzed Internet memes. The types are differentiated in accordance with the complexity of the metaphoric source: metaphtonymy with a simple metaphoric source, metaphtonymy with a metaphoric source structured by simple metonymy, metaphtonymy with a metaphoric source structured by metonymic chain, and metaphtonymy with a metaphoric source structured by radial metonymy. In all the four types, the metaphoric target is structured by metonymic amalgam – a metonymic complex in which metonymies that are based on different ICMs merge due to the association of contiguity that is relevant in the current communicative and social/political context. Besides metonymic amalgam, the study introduces the notion of radial metonymy – a metonymic complex that emerges when one metonymic source gives access to several metonymic targets. We argue that the analyzed metaphtonymies rest on conceptual incongruity created to trigger negative evaluative inferences and emotional responses to shape Trump’s image.
本研究探讨了以唐纳德·特朗普为主角的基于推特的网络模因中的(verbo)-视觉形而上学,重点研究了隐喻和转喻的概念互动模式及其影响互联网用户的社会语用潜力。研究结果揭示了在所分析的网络模因中使用的四种(动词)-视觉形而上学。根据隐喻来源的复杂性来区分其类型:具有简单隐喻来源的形而上学、具有简单转喻结构的隐喻来源的语义学、具有转喻链结构的隐喻源的形而上学和具有径向转喻结构的比喻来源的形而上学。在所有四种类型中,隐喻目标都是由转喻混合构成的——这是一种转喻复合体,其中基于不同ICM的转喻由于当前交际和社会/政治背景下相关的邻接关系而合并。除了转喻混合之外,本研究还引入了径向转喻的概念——当一个转喻来源接触到几个转喻目标时,就会出现一种转喻复合体。我们认为,所分析的形而上学基于概念上的不协调,这种不协调是为了触发负面评价推断和情绪反应来塑造特朗普的形象。

The affect bias in the metaphorical representation of anticipated events 预期事件隐喻表征中的情感偏见
IF 0.9 Q2 LINGUISTICS Pub Date : 2021-12-13 DOI: 10.1075/msw.18034.pia
Anna Piata, C. Soriano
When talking about anticipated events, speakers can conceptualize them either as destinations towards which they are moving or as entities moving towards them, which correspond to the Ego- and the Time-moving metaphors, respectively (cf. ‘We are approaching Christmas’ and ‘Christmas is approaching’). Research in psycholinguistics has shown affective valence, i.e. whether the conceptualized event is perceived as positive or negative, to be one of the factors that modulate metaphor choice; positive anticipation is preferentially associated with Ego-moving expressions, whereas negative anticipation is predominantly associated with Time-moving metaphors. This paper sets out to test if the time-affect association surfaces in naturally-occurring language use when both metaphorical patterns are available. By focusing on the temporal usage of the verb approach, we provide linguistic evidence in favor of such an affective bias in time representations. In addition, the language data point to a semantic preference for a particular type of event (i.e., personal vs social) under each metaphorical pattern. We interpret this finding as preliminary evidence for a possible semantic bias in time representations to be further investigated.
当谈论预期的事件时,说话者可以将其概念化为他们正在走向的目的地,也可以将其概念化为向目的地移动的实体,这分别对应于自我和时间移动的隐喻(参见“我们正在接近圣诞节”和“圣诞节即将来临”)。心理语言学研究表明,情感效价(即被概念化的事件是被感知为积极的还是消极的)是调节隐喻选择的因素之一;积极预期优先与自我移动的表达相关联,而消极预期主要与时间移动的隐喻相关联。本文旨在测试在两种隐喻模式同时存在的情况下,时间影响关联是否会在自然发生的语言使用中出现。通过关注动词方法的时间用法,我们提供了支持这种时间表征中的情感偏见的语言学证据。此外,语言数据指出,在每种隐喻模式下,对特定类型事件(即个人与社会)的语义偏好。我们将这一发现解释为时间表征中可能存在语义偏差的初步证据,有待进一步研究。

Metaphors of cultural diversity at UNESCO 教科文组织文化多样性的隐喻
IF 0.9 Q2 LINGUISTICS Pub Date : 2021-11-23 DOI: 10.1075/msw.20018.kor
Irit S. Kornblit
This paper analyses metaphors and analogies of cultural diversity at UNESCO in a discursive and rhetorical-argumentative framework, to answer the following question: How do these rhetorical devices play a legitimizing role when introducing a new keyword into the public sphere? Conventional and creative metaphors are analyzed separately to examine if they represent different legitimization strategies. Conventional metaphors and analogies include variations on treasure, heritage, and biodiversity; creative metaphors include cultural diversity as a living treasure and a Rainbow River. The findings suggest that the wealth metaphor fulfills an evaluative meliorative function, while the heritage metaphor constructs a collective identity devoid of internal conflict, thereby depoliticizing the concept of cultural diversity. The biodiversity analogy further depoliticizes cultural diversity via naturalization and the invocation of the authority of science. Legitimization is also achieved by invoking past discourse and shared knowledge, and by tapping into UNESCO’s “discursive memory.” In contrast, the creative metaphors living treasure and Rainbow River play a different argumentative role: they offer a rhetorical solution of coexistence to two contradicting views on culture; one as a static, closed entity to be protected from extinction, and the other as a changing, dynamic process. They do so by fusing both views, represented by different metaphors, into one creative metaphor.
本文在话语和修辞论证的框架下分析了联合国教科文组织文化多样性的隐喻和类比,以回答以下问题:当将一个新的关键词引入公共领域时,这些修辞手段如何发挥合法化作用?传统隐喻和创造性隐喻分别进行分析,以检验它们是否代表不同的合法化策略。传统的隐喻和类比包括宝藏、遗产和生物多样性的变化;创造性的隐喻包括作为活的宝藏和彩虹河的文化多样性。研究结果表明,财富隐喻实现了一种评价性的改善功能,而遗产隐喻构建了一种没有内部冲突的集体认同,从而使文化多样性的概念去政治化。生物多样性的类比通过自然化和引用科学权威进一步使文化多样性非政治化。通过引用过去的话语和共享知识,以及利用联合国教科文组织的“话语记忆”,也可以实现合法化。相比之下,《活宝》和《彩虹河》这两个创造性隐喻则发挥了不同的论证作用:它们为两种相互矛盾的文化观提供了共存的修辞解决方案;一个是静态的,封闭的实体,需要保护免于灭绝,另一个是变化的,动态的过程。他们通过将两种不同的隐喻融合成一个创造性的隐喻来实现这一目标。

How visual metaphors can contradict verbal occurrences 视觉隐喻如何与言语事件相矛盾

We investigate the different interpretations related to the metaphorical imprint of climate change in English and French media discourses. This cross-linguistic perspective is motivated by the particularities of both languages which have been assumed to promote different understandings of climate change-related concepts. We focus on the metaphor carbon footprint whose meaning can be compared to another climate change metaphor in English: fingerprint . These two source domains share a highly specific and concrete meaning interpreted from lexical constructions enabled by the English language. In French, however, such a specification cannot be interpreted from the meaning of the metaphor empreinte carbone ( carbon imprint ) which defines a similar concept. We rely on visual representations of these metaphorical expressions in English and French to discuss the characteristics associated with each source domain: we show that visual metaphors can contradict expectations emerging from the interpretations of verbal metaphors.
我们调查了英法媒体话语中与气候变化隐喻印记相关的不同解释。这种跨语言视角的动机是两种语言的特殊性,人们认为这两种语言可以促进对气候变化相关概念的不同理解。我们关注碳足迹这个比喻,它的含义可以与英语中的另一个气候变化比喻:指纹相比较。这两个源域具有高度特定和具体的意义,这些意义是从英语的词汇结构中解释出来的。然而,在法语中,这样的规范不能从定义类似概念的隐喻empreinte carbone(碳印记)的含义来解释。我们依靠英语和法语中这些隐喻表达的视觉表征来讨论与每个来源领域相关的特征:我们表明,视觉隐喻可以与言语隐喻解释中产生的期望相矛盾。

Figurative language in multilingual students’ L2 Swedish – a usage-based perspective 多语言学生瑞典语二语中的形象语言——基于使用的视角
IF 0.9 Q2 LINGUISTICS Pub Date : 2021-10-12 DOI: 10.1075/msw.00017.pre
Julia Prentice
The aim of the current paper is to reinterpret some results of two previous studies on the mastery of figurative expressions from the perspective of usage-based linguistics. The reanalysis aims to shed more light on the learning and use of figurative language by multilingual students by exploring the complex interplay of linguistic creativity, expressivity, and conventionality in figurative expressions. The reinterpretation shows that many of the examples that were previously categorized as novel figurative expressions used in students’ writing, can be analyzed as instances of regular patterns, i.e. constructions, with certain lexical idiosyncrasies. Modifications of conventionalized figurative expressions are discussed and reinterpreted in terms of strength of entrenchment of links between form and meaning within certain constructions or links between constructions and conventionalized pragmatic information in the multilinguals’ mental construction. Implications for the treatment of Swedish figurative expressions in the second language class room are, in line with previous research, that focusing on regularity might reduce unpredictability, often seen as the core difficulty in the learning of such expressions in an L2. The paper also offers some directions for further investigation of the socio-cognitive processes involved in the learning of figurative language in an additional language.
本文的目的是从基于用法的语言学的角度重新解释两项关于比喻表达掌握的研究的一些结果。重新分析旨在通过探索比喻表达中语言创造性、表达性和规定性的复杂相互作用,为多语言学生学习和使用比喻语言提供更多的线索。重新解释表明,许多以前被归类为学生写作中使用的新颖比喻表达的例子,可以作为具有一定词汇特质的规则模式,即结构的实例来分析。本文讨论并重新解释了约定俗成的比喻表达的变化,即在某些结构中形式与意义之间的联系的巩固强度,或在多语者的心理结构中结构与约定俗成的语用信息之间的联系。与之前的研究一致,在第二语言课堂上处理瑞典语比喻表达的含义是,关注规律性可能会减少不可预测性,而不可预测性通常被视为在第二语言中学习这类表达的核心困难。本文还为进一步研究比喻语言学习的社会认知过程提供了一些方向。

From 1850 to 1980 the Norwegian state pursued a policy of Norwegianization of the Sami, where schools played an important part in the attempt to turn Sami children into Norwegian citizens. Pupils lived in boarding schools where all teaching was in Norwegian and it was forbidden to speak Sami, both in and out of the classroom. This article examines metaphors in three types of material: Norwegian textbooks; Sami literature in these textbooks; and Sami testimony literature. The aim is to find out how the Norwegian state used its power to stigmatize Sami identity through metaphors in textbooks, and how Sami writers show their resistance to Norwegianization through metaphors in Sami literary texts and Sami testimony literature. The analysis also examines whether metaphors are signalled or not, in order to see if they are open to negotiation or taken as self-evident, and if signalling can be related to genre. One central finding is that the Norwegian texts contain more condescending and less signalled metaphors than the Sami ones. Another is that signalling might be related to genre: there are more signalled metaphors in the reflective narratives of witness testimonies than in the other genres that are examined. The theoretical foundations of the analyses are discourse-based metaphor analysis in a post-colonial perspective.
1850年至1980年,挪威政府推行萨米人的挪威化政策,学校在将萨米儿童转变为挪威公民的努力中发挥了重要作用。学生们住在寄宿学校,那里的所有教学都用挪威语,禁止在教室内外说萨米语。本文考察了三类材料中的隐喻:挪威教科书;这些教科书中的萨米文学;萨米证词文献。目的是了解挪威国家如何利用其权力通过教科书中的隐喻来污蔑萨米人的身份,以及萨米作家如何通过萨米文学文本和萨米证词文学中的隐喻表现出对挪威化的抵制。该分析还考察了隐喻是否被信号化,以了解它们是否对谈判开放或被视为不言自明,以及信号化是否与类型有关。一个核心发现是,挪威语文本比萨米语文本包含更多屈尊俯就的隐喻,信号更少。另一个原因是,信号可能与类型有关:证人证词的反思性叙述中比其他被研究的类型中有更多的信号隐喻。这些分析的理论基础是后殖民主义视角下基于话语的隐喻分析。
